Norfolk Naval Station (Chambers Field) dominates the waterfront in this detailed 2013 survey of the Virginia coastline. The map illustrates a complex industrial and military landscape, where the Elizabeth River meets Hampton Roads. The massive infrastructure of the Norfolk International Terminals and the extensive pier system at Sewells Point contrast with established residential neighborhoods like Lochhaven, Meadowbrook, and Edgewater. The transportation network is a central focus, featuring the Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel and the Old Point Ferry crossing to the north. Further inland, the map captures the dense suburban growth of the early 21st century around Wards Corner and the numerous inlets of the Lafayette River. Along the northern shore, Willoughby Spit and Willoughby Beach provide a residential buffer against the Chesapeake Bay, while the southern portion reveals the heavy rail presence of the Norfolk Southern Terminal Dr near Lamberts Point.
